What is EBA? • EBA = Evidence-Based Acquisition. • Brill’s own definition:
• Part subscription: It includes 12 months’ access to all ebooks (or a customised selection of ebooks) • Part purchase: At the end of the 12 months, the library reviews its usage statistics (the evidence) and chooses which titles to acquire with perpetual access, up to the value of the upfront fee (like using a ‘voucher’)
E-Books – business models For all models:
• All E-books are one-off purchases with perpetual access rights. • There are no platform fees. • Cross-campus access via IP and remote access 24/7.
• Off-site access is via Federated Access Management (eg: Athens or Shibboleth) or Proxy Server (eg: EZproxy) • No DRM. • Unlimited number of users and downloads. Buy one book, multiple simultaneous users. • Usage reports available.
